OpenFILER V3.0 with OpenRECIPE (D/DP) $14.95 Will read a SmartFILER or RecipeFILER data base and convert it to a sequential ASCII file by re-writing the records onto a new tape or disk.

Once in the T-DOS or the CP/M environment, the file can be directly read by dBASE, WordStar, or other wordprocessor or editor application programs. Your new sequential file can even be sent to another computer via the modem. OpenFILER V3.0 also provides: full recovery of the XBIT field, temporary delete and un-delete of individual records, ability to convert only a specified range of records, replacement of "text field" commas, (for use with BASIC or dBASE); and much more. Included with the program is a comprehensive documentation file that will guide you through the use of the program, as well as some suggested uses for the resulting file. The program REQUIRES at least two drives, (disk or data drives).
